C22 Whitby Centennial Bowl

Sunday medium distance race to the Ajax weather buoy and back.  Winds were light 4-5 knots from the SW, no waves, full racing main and light #1, singlehanded.  We had 14 boats on the line.

Kept with most boats, tacking towards the mark, keeping my VMG above over 3 knots with 5 knots of boat speed.  Winds lightened as I got closer to the mark and lightened further on the downwind leg back.  Kept my boat speed over 2 knots most of the time wing on wing.  I did try to reach to get closer to shore, but found I could not maintain boat speed.
